啤酒酵母的自溶会严重影响啤酒的品质,而酵母的质量也被认为是啤酒酿造的关键因素之一。前期在啤酒酵母自溶的研究中发现细胞完整性途径中重要的转录因子RLM1基因与酵母自溶有密切关系。本研究在啤酒酵母单倍体菌株中对RLM1进行敲除与过表达,发现RLM1敲除后,酵母菌抗自溶性能差,而RLM1过表达则有助于酵母的抗自溶。另外,发现RLM1基因的敲除影响了酵母的抗渗透压性能、细胞壁损伤的耐受性、抗氮饥饿性能和温度耐受性。研究发现细胞壁组装及DNA损伤应答相关基因GAS1的表达随RLM1的过表达与敲除而调整,而CWI途径中其他相关基因的调控方式并没有明显的规律,推测RLM1可能主要影响了CWI途径中GAS1基因的表达,进而提高啤酒酵母在恶劣环境中的抗逆性。此研究结果对于进一步选育抗自溶啤酒酵母以及了解啤酒酵母的自溶机制提供了基础。 相似文献

膨胀素——一个引人注目的细胞壁松弛酶候选者 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
植物的生长是植物生理学中一个最基本且重要的问题。细胞膨胀生长(扩大和伸长)的前提是使细胞壁松弛和不可逆伸展。生物物理和生物化学分析表明,细胞壁衬质是控制细胞壁生长的最重要的因素[4]。目前,人们普遍认为,衬质多糖作为“链”(tether),把纤维素微纤丝结合在一起[9];或作为“填补物”(filler),防止微纤丝聚集[15,22,30]。并进一步认为,细胞壁松弛的机理是衬质多糖被水解断裂[1,9,13,14]。据报道,多种修饰酶(如葡聚糖酶[1,9,19]、葡萄糖苷酶[19,27]、半乳糖苷酶[17,31]、果胶甲酯酶[11]、IAA氧化酶[2]、过氧… 相似文献

Ndi1p(internal NADH脱氢酶)是酵母线粒体电子传递链的重要组成部分,参与酵母线粒体呼吸、凋亡等多种生理活动. 本文成功建立了酵母Ndi1p突变表达文库, 随机测序表明,每个基因平均含有2个突变. 利用本文库进行了Ndi1p温度敏感突变筛选, 获得了一定数量的温度敏感型菌株, 并对温度敏感机理做了简单探索. 结果表 明,温度敏感酵母在需要Ndi1p脱氢酶活性的培养基上对温度敏感;有趣的是,这些温度敏感株细胞如果在30 ℃生长但在37 ℃测试不表现出温度敏感性,这暗示高温影响温度敏感Ndi1p的生成, 正常温度下Ndi1p正确构象一旦生成则高温不能引起Ndi1p变性. Ndi1p突变表达文库的建立对于Ndi1p参与的细胞呼吸、凋亡等过程的机理研究将有一定意义. 相似文献

Fragile mutants of Saccharomyces cerevisiae require osmotic stabilizers and lyse in hypotonic solutions. A single recessive mutation, srb1, is responsible for their phenotype, but the cause of cell lysis remains uncertain. We have analyzed three possible mechanisms
for this behavior: comparative amounts of wall per cell; their chitin content; and the relative activity of wall hydrolytic
enzymes activated by osmotic shock. We found normal amounts of wall and higher amounts of chitin in the fragile mutants. Determination
of lytic enzymes by radiolabel of the reducing ends of wall polysaccharides gave results suggesting that fragile mutants produce
increased amounts of stretch-activated wall hydrolytic enzymes, which may be responsible for their lysis in hypotonic media.
These enzymes normally may play a role in cell wall growth and shaping.

Successful zygote formation during yeast mating requires cell fusion of the two haploid mating partners. To ensure that cells do not lyse as they remodel their cell wall, the fusion event is both temporally and spatially regulated: the cell wall is degraded only after cell–cell contact and only in the region of cell–cell contact. To understand how cell fusion is regulated, we identified mutants defective in cell fusion based upon their defect in mating to a fus1 fus2 strain (Chenevert, J., N. Valtz, and I. Herskowitz. 1994. Genetics 136:1287–1297). Two of these cell fusion mutants are defective in the FPS1 gene, which codes for a glycerol facilitator (Luyten, K., J. Albertyn, W.F. Skibbe, B.A. Prior, J. Ramos, J.M. Thevelein, and S. Hohmann. 1995. EMBO [Eur. Mol. Biol. Organ.] J. 14:1360–1371). To determine whether inability to maintain osmotic balance accounts for the defect in cell fusion in these mutants, we analyzed the behavior of an fps1Δ mutant with reduced intracellular glycerol levels because of a defect in the glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GPD1) gene (Albertyn, J., S. Hohmann, J.M. Thevelein, and B.A. Prior. 1994. Mol. Cell. Biol. 14:4135– 4144): deletion of GPD1 partially suppressed the cell fusion defect of fps1 mutants. In contrast, overexpression of GPD1 exacerbated the defect. The fusion defect could also be partially suppressed by 1 M sorbitol. These observations indicate that the fusion defect of fps1 mutants results from inability to regulate osmotic balance and provide evidence that the osmotic state of the cell can regulate fusion. We have also observed that mutants expressing hyperactive protein kinase C exhibit a cell fusion defect similar to that of fps1 mutants. We propose that Pkc1p regulates cell fusion in response to osmotic disequilibrium. Unlike fps1 mutants, fus1 and fus2 mutants are not influenced by expression of GPD1 or by 1 M sorbitol. Their fusion defect is thus unlikely to result from altered osmotic balance. 相似文献

Phenotypic analysis of temperature-sensitive yeast actin mutants 总被引:128,自引:0,他引:128
The consequences of two different mutations in the single essential actin structural gene of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) were studied. Both conditional-lethal actin mutants exhibit six phenotypes at the restrictive temperature: disruption of the asymmetric staining pattern of actin assembly; delocalized deposition of chitin on the cell surface; partial inhibition of secretion of the periplasmic protein, invertase; an intracellular accumulation of secretory vesicles; death of cells in the budded portion of the cell cycle upon prolonged incubation at the restrictive condition; and osmotic sensitivity. These results implicate actin in the organization and polarized growth of the yeast cell surface. 相似文献

The kinetics of release of four intracellular enzymes from different yeast cell locations using the Differential Product Release
(DPR) method has been investigated. The method uses a combination of physical, chemical and biological agents such as lytic
enzymes, an osmotic support and a spheroplast stabilizer. Using the DPR technique a wall enzyme, invertase, was released with
a very high specific activity in the first step from a breadmaking strain ofS. cerevisiae. Maximum release could be obtained in this step when the incubation time was extended from 60 min to 100 min. Two cytosol
enzymes, α-D-glucosidase and alcohol dehydrogenase were released in the second step. Fumarase was released in the third step
almost instantaneously after disruption of the mitochondria which reduces considerably, by ca. 1 hour, the total incubation
time of DPR. This paper investigates the kinetics of enzyme release during the 3 steps of DPR. 相似文献

We isolated and characterized a histidine kinase gene (HIK1) from the rice blast fungus, Pyricularia oryzae (Magnaporthe grisea). The deduced amino acid sequence of HIK1 showed highest similarity (85.7%) to a hybrid-type histidine kinase, Os-1/Nik-1 of Neurospora crassa. Disruption of HIK1 caused no defect in cell growth on normal media and in pathogenicity to rice plants. The Deltahik1 strain acquired resistance to three groups of fungicides (phenylpyrroles, dicarboximides, and aromatic hydrocarbons) similar to os-1 mutants of N. crassa. The Deltahik1 strain showed increased sensitivity to high concentrations of sugars although its salt sensitivity was not elevated, suggesting that the rice blast fungus can distinguish osmostresses caused by high sugar concentrations and high salt concentrations. In contrast, os-1 mutants of N. crassa are sensitive to high concentrations of both salts and sugars. These findings suggest that P. oryzae and N. crassa partially differ in their os (osmosensitive) signal transduction pathway. 相似文献

Effect of glycosylation on yeast invertase oligomer stability 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Yeast external invertase is a glycoprotein that exists as a dimer that can associate to form tetramers, hexamers, and octamers (Chu, F., Watorek, W., and Maley, F. (1983) Arch. Biochem. Biophys. 223, 543-555; Esmon, P. C., Esmon, B. E., Schauer, I. E., Taylor, A., and Schekman, R. (1987) J. Biol. Chem., 262, 4395-4401), a process that is facilitated by the attached oligosaccharide chains. We have studied this association by high performance liquid chromatography on a gel filtration matrix, by which procedure wild-type bakers' yeast invertase gives two peaks, and invertase from a core mutant (mnn1 mnn9) of Saccharomyces cerevisiae X2180 gives three peaks. Concentration of an invertase solution by freezing drives the dimers into higher aggregates that, at 30 degrees C, re-equilibrate to a mixture of smaller forms, the composition of which depends on pH, concentration, and time. The invertase from a mutant, mnn1 mnn9 dpg1, which underglycosylates its glycoproteins and produces invertase with 4-7 oligosaccharide chains, forms oligomers of much lower stability than the mnn1 mnn9 invertase, which has 8-11 carbohydrate chains. Both of these mutants release external invertase from the periplasm into the medium during growth, but we conclude that defects in the cell wall structure may be more important in this release than an altered tendency of the invertases to aggregate. Investigation of aggregate formation by electron microscopy revealed that all invertases, including the internal nonglycosylated enzyme, form octamers under appropriate conditions. 相似文献

Trevithick, John R. (University of Wisconsin Medical School, Madison), Robert L. Metzenberg and Donald F. Costello. Genetic alteration of pore size and other properties of the Neurospora cell wall. J. Bacteriol. 92:1016-1020. 1966.-Several properties of the cell walls of wild type and the osmotic mutant of Neurospora crassa have been examined. The peameability of the isolated cell walls to polyethylene glycol and dextran polymers of different molecular weights was investigated by the volume of distribution technique. The exclusion thresholds were evaluated by a statistical treatment. The molecular weights corresponding to these thresholds for wild type and osmotic were approximately 4,750 and 18,500, respectively; these values are significantly different. The cell walls of osmotic appeared to be thinner, more easily broken, and more easily compressed to ribbonlike shapes, whereas those of wild type were tubular and strong. Chemical analysis showed that osmotic walls had roughly a 30-fold higher galactosamine-glucosamine ratio than did wild type. It is proposed that the osmotic mutant has a cell wall with abnormally large pores, and that this may account for the increased rate of egress of invertase and the decreased fractionation of light from heavy invertase in this strain. 相似文献

Suspensions of enterococci were treated with lysozyme in the presence of osmotic stabilizers. The resulting osmotically fragile bodies prepared from Streptococcus faecium strain F24 and S. faecalis strain E1 gave rise to L-forms under optimal osmotic and nutritional conditions for treatment and subsequent growth. The most critical component of the growth medium, to obtain maximum yields, was the nature and concentration of the added salt. The two most effective salts were sodium chloride and ammonium chloride in the range of 2 to 3% (w/v) added to a suitable agar base. Ammonium chloride was more versatile, because it could be used with either sucrose or polyethylene glycol 4000 as the osmotic stabilizer for preparation and dilution of the osmotically fragile bodies. Sodium chloride would not consistently support growth of S. faecium F24 as L-forms when polyethylene glycol 4000 was used as the osmotic stabilizer during lysozyme treatment. Time-course studies of concurrent cell wall removal and L-form induction suggested that maximal induction required only cell wall damage rather than complete wall removal. This method for induction of L-forms from a suspension of enterococci is a significant improvement over other presently known methods. 相似文献

Mutagenesis of the sucrose-fermenting (SUC1) Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain 4059-358D yielded an invertase-negative mutant (D10). Subsequent mutagenic treatment of D10 gave a sucrose-fermenting revertant (D10-ER1) that contained the same amount of large (mannoprotein) invertase as strain 4059-358D but only trace amounts of the smaller intracellular nonglycosylated enzyme. Limited genetic evidence indicated that the mutations in D10 and D10-ER1 are allelic to the SUC1 gene. The large invertases from D10-ER1 and 4059-358D were purified and compared. The two enzymes have similar specific activity and Km for sucrose, cross-react immunologically, and show the same subunit molecular weight after removal of the carbohydrate with endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidae H. They differ in that the large enzyme from the revertant is rapidly inactivated at 55 degrees C, whereas that from the parent is relatively stable at 65 degrees C. The small invertase in extracts of D10-ER1 is also heat sensitive as compared to the small enzyme from the original parent strain. The low level of small invertase in mutant D10-ER1 may reflect increased intracellular degradation of this heat-labile form. In several crosses of D10-ER1 with strains carrying the SUC1 or SUC3 genes, the temperature sensitivity of the large and small invertases and the low cellular level of small invertase appeared to cosegregate. These findings are evidence that SUC1 is a structural gene for invertase and that both large and small forms are encoded by a single gene. A detailed genetic analysis is presented in a companion paper. 相似文献
